Turquoise stone magic properties
Called “Heavenly stone” in ancient times, turquoise certainly has magical properties. The Roman historian Pliny the Elder in the 1st century AD enthusiastically wrote about the Persian turquoise. According to him, it is “bluer than the azure of heaven” and for getting it “the caravans of merchants equip themselves to distant Khorasan”. Even then, turquoise entered the markets of the East from Persian mines. Further, through Turkey, it crossed to Europe, where it always found numerous fans.
Stone of victory and wealth
Turquoise, set in gold, adorned the robes of royalty and representatives of the nobility. Persian turquoise means “winner”. Considered a stone of victory in Muslim countries, “the mere sight of which is equivalent to reading the Koran”. In the East, from ancient times they attribute to it miraculous, magical power and wear it as a talisman.
Noteworthy, the special properties of turquoise are in its blueness, which diverts the “evil eye” and destroys its “devilish power.” For this purpose, in Iran, even in remote villages, in some families one can see children clothes pinned with turquoise brooches set in silver or copper, and both women and men wear rings with turquoise.
Turquoise in ancient Egypt was used for inlaid jewelry. For magic rituals of priests, stone-cutters carved sacred beetles – scarabs. People believed that turquoise has miraculous properties, so it played a big role in human superstitions and medical affairs. According to belief, it brings luck in love, provides longevity and good health, drives away evil thoughts and helps resist temptations.
In the Indian burials in Honduras, excellent products were found – masks of the gods – covered with mosaics, in which turquoise blue and green colors predominate. Together with turquoise, the masters used nacre of different colors, malachite, pieces of gold, glass, coral, as well as bone, shark teeth, pearls, obsidian and such precious stones as beryl, garnet and emerald.
The Indians believed that great wealth awaited the one who looked at the turquoise immediately after he saw the young moon on the first day after the new moon. According to the Russian proverb: “The hand on which the turquoise is in the ring never gets poorer”.
Living stone to fight evil
Turquoise is really a unique stone, because it “lives”: born, it grows up and dies. A pale blue, almost whitish turquoise is “young”, it shows the power of Pluto. A white turquoise, unsafe, but conducive to business activity, should be worn only by Aries and Scorpions. It brings happiness only to those of them who go all-in and even risk themselves. Blue turquoise is “mature”, and green – “old” or “dead.” Depending on the “age”, turquoise changes not only its color, but also its energy. Blue stone – belonging to brave people; it often adorn the hilt of knives and swords.
Turquoise inspires battle with evil. “Mature” green turquoise bestows health and well-being, helps to acquire wealth, authority and power. Green turquoise is a symbol of wisdom and contains the strength of Saturn. This is a stone of self-confident people who have achieved the goal. Others should not wear it, otherwise they will create a strong negative field around them.
Health indicator
If the turquoise in your little ring, earrings or pendant has changed its color, then you should think: is everything all right with your health? According to belief, turquoise thus warns its owner about the dangers threatening him. If a person is sick, then the stone is sick along with him and even dies. The ambassador of Queen Elizabeth I of England, Jerome Horsey, describes in his Travels a meeting with Tsar Ivan the Terrible. Complaining about illnesses, shortly before his death, the king told the overseas guest: “Look at my turquoise and take it. In your hand it will remain bright. But turquoise fades, if you put it in my hand! I am infected with the disease and turquoise therefore loses its color. It portends my death. ”
According to Academician A.E. Fersman, turquoise is a very unstable chemical compound. It easily absorbs various substances, paints and especially salts, while changing color and decomposing.
